Did you know that most rodent sperm have hooks? I knew I found the perfect postdoc to ask 'why' when I met @Kristin_Hook. Check out her new paper with undergrad, Lauren Wilke, asking if the hook helps or hinders sperm aggregation and motility: mdpi.com/1254816 (1/5)

Hello #bsf people and other insects as food and feed producers- definitely a must read. Honey bees.... black soldier flies... and how two industries interact rdcu.be/cf8Mv

How many of those who insist that "science says there are just two genders" simultaneously reject what science says about anthropogenic global warming or COVID?

1/4 My mentors from the University of New Orleans @UofNO, Drs N Anthony and S Lailvaux @SLailvaux, and I have a new article “Size but not relatedness drives the spatial distribution of males within an urban population of Anolis carolinensis lizards” onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

This headline is about a mechanism of meiotic drive. Can we really call these sperm competitors if they're produced by the same male? Discuss.

1/6 Social dynamics can be stressful, especially when vying for a mate. Ever wondered if that stress can affect reproductive traits? We did too! So, we tested it in two species of Peromyscus mice: the monogamous P. polionotus and the promiscuous P. maniculatus. #AnimBehav2021
Image 1 is an example of the monogamous and pair bonding species P. polionotus. This social behavior has profound effects on how the male perceives competitive threat, and possibly how they deal with stress.

Really excited this newest MacManes Lab paper, led by @t_annina, with important contributions from @heidisfisher @erezaterez @odudcha @RuqayyaKhan20 & others! Chromosome size affects sequence divergence through the interplay of recombination & selection biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Chromosome size affects sequence divergence between species through the interplay of recombination...

The structure of the genome, including the architecture, number, and size of its chromosomes, shapes the distribution of genetic diversity and sequence divergence. Importantly, smaller chromosomes...

#StudentSpotlight Once a month we sit down with an Entomology graduate student to get to know more about them, how they became interested in Entomology, and what their research is about. This month, we sat down with Connor Auth! entomology.wsu.edu/directory… #GoCougs #WSUEntomology

The @WSDAgov posted yesterday that after a few weeks of no new sightings of Asian giant hornet, a resident in the Blaine area took a photo of one attacking a wasp nest, and 2 new specimens were found. This is a great reminder to report any suspicious sightings. Thank you!

The 2nd best thing about masks is I can learn everything I need to know about a person based on whether or not they are wearing one in public
